RS500 cannot connect older printer

Is there a way to connect an older printer using WPA-PSK and not downgrade the whole network?

IF the printer has ethernet port, connect the printer to the router using ethernet.

If you have WiFI and WPA3 in the mix, older devices have problems if WPA3 is on the signal.
